We need more of this. The issues in our system don’t just impact through schools. Local authority funding crises often push families down child protection route instead of family support route. Parents desperately seeking support for their child get blamed not helped.

Have you been subject to FII allegations (Uk)? Cathie Long, with Daniel Cooper, Human Rights Lawyer, wants to hear from families who’ve had negative impacts from unjustified FII referral. If you/your child is neurodivergent this is also relevant. To discuss further contact:DanielC@ikpsolicitors.com

Let's talk about Autistic masking! "Autistic masking is a trauma response to stigma, invalidation and marginalisation.” @kieranrose.bsky.social Autistic Masking is different to other types of masking. When/where/with whom do you unmask? Why do you think that might be?

Another valuable study identifying that parents of autistic children and/or autistic parents are frequently blamed when they seek help and support for their child. In worst cases this leads to allegations of FII. #disabilityrights #parentblame #autism #socialjustice

#Ageing as an #Autistic person is challenging. We’re more likely to have health issues but often find services inaccessible. We value independence but aren’t supported to maintain it. We’re as deserving as other age groups but tend to get overlooked. #AutRes www.thetransmitter.org/spectrum/gro...

Growing old with autism

For many autistic adults, the golden years are tarnished by poor health, poverty and, in some cases, homelessness. Their plight reveals huge gaps in care.

I’m very lucky to live in beautiful Northumberland, so get to hike in many beautiful places. It’s one of my two calm/head space things to do. We have amazing hills, forests, beaches, castles, moors, rivers. So lucky. #Northumberland #photography #hiking #wellbeing #castle

This is how we make positive progress. I hope it happens, because for years parents have tried to advocate for their children only to be dismissed, ignored, or - worse - accused of FII.

Had to use our wonderful #SycamoreGap for my background pic. I was so lucky to have done a 7 mile walk along that stretch of wall just a few weeks before it was felled. Still gutted it’s gone, but the potential for new growth is there. I feel a metaphor in there somewhere!
